ABSTRACT:
A portable observation stand having a ladder formed of upper and lower ladder sections pivotally interconnected at adjacent ends for movement between a folded position and an extended position in end-to-end relation, a seat and a foot-support member are both pivotally connected to the upper ladder section with the seat arranged to be in operative position above and rearwardly of the foot-support member. The seat is disposed rearwardly of the rails of the upper ladder section and the foot-support member has a pivotable part thereof movable to an overlapped position with the remainder thereof whereby a person can climb the ladder to the seat level without obstruction thereby. Linkage structure interconnects the seat and foot-support member for simultaneous movement thereof between an operative position extending at a substantial angle to the upper ladder section and a storage position substantially parallel with the upper ladder section to facilitate folding of the stand.
